If Riyadh becomes 'Squash Match City', then Ricochet is done.

Sure, losing to Brock Lesnar is hardly shameful, but the high-flyer has to look competitive at least. Otherwise, fans will scratch their heads and wonder what the point of feeding Rico to the 'Beast' was. Again, as said earlier, some matches are best when they enhance someone, and that's true even in defeat.

Ricochet can look like a million bucks if he scores some comeback spots on Brock and comes close to beating him with a few thrilling near falls. Though nobody is silly enough to think Lesnar is losing the WWE Title this close to WrestleMania, fans in Saudi Arabia will create a lively atmosphere if Paul Heyman's meal ticket starts wobbling.

There'd be some logic in commentary claims that Lesnar was training for heavyweight action too. If Michael Cole and Corey Graves explain that Brock has one eye on Drew McIntyre, then it'd excuse him for being befuddled by Ricochet's dizzying aerial blasts.
